Series you were disappointed with...
Shaggai replied to ProfessorMLyon's topic in Entertainment Discussion
The first one is called "The Color of Magic", and it's definitely not as good as the later ones. I think "Reaper Man" is a good start, or "Small Gods" if you find discussions of religion to be interesting. -
You Know You're a Sanderfan When...
Shaggai replied to Shardbearer's topic in General Brandon Discussion
Anyone claiming Brandon's books aren't diverse is either 1. not reading his books, or 2. not reading what Brandon says about his books. I suspect it was the second, which is understandable. Not everyone is a Sharder. -
If they're stacking in four dimensions, you don't need five dimensions to intersect them. Imagine sticking a pin through a stack of papers. It passes through all of them, in only three dimensions.

Shaggai commented on Chaos's article in Brandon and Book News

They're suspected to be Shardpools, because previously Shardpools were suspected to be the method by which worldhopping was achieved.

Shaggai replied to ProfessorMLyon's topic in Entertainment Discussion
Which Discworld book did you read? They vary a lot in style, and the first few aren't as good as the later ones. -
I believe the culinary term for human meat is "long pork."

Shard of 17th Shard: Investiture is reputation. You get magic powers from humor, theories, etc. Kobold King is literally more powerful than God.
-
The 17th Shard is clever and sly. To it, a thousand years are as the blink of an eye. Besides, TwiLyghtSansSparkles is at 5135 and counting.

But it's for science! Alright, fine, fine. I'll go upvote some. Eventually, someone else will reach that rank.

What Shattered the Shattered Plains (Probably some spoilers)
Shaggai replied to thejopen27's topic in Stormlight Archive
I suspect it was the Stormfather (perhaps the Splintering, but that seems unlikely). The wording of the Song is odd, if you assume it wasn't a god of some sort. They blame our people For the loss of that land. The city that once covered it Did range the eastern strand. The power made known in the tomes of our clan Our gods were not who shattered these plains. Why would it specifically mention their gods? The previous lines don't seem to imply anything about gods. However, if you assume it was someone else's god(s), that would make significantly more sense. It was not our gods who shattered these plains, it was someone else. The main other god is the Stormfather, especially as Cultivation would be unlikely to shatter the plains.- 19 replies

Gaming the system, how world hoppers can make a fortune
Shaggai replied to Unhinged's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Go to Scadrial, use Hemalurgy to obtain Feruchemical gold and Allomantic gold, then become unkillable. Go to another planet (not Roshar) and bet large amounts of money that you can beat their best fighter. Rinse and repeat. -

Shaggai replied to Shardbearer's topic in General Brandon Discussion
Keep straw away from it. -
Before asking that question, how likely would you have thought that it was MeLaan?

You Know You're a Sanderfan When...
Shaggai replied to Shardbearer's topic in General Brandon Discussion
If we're going off of BC and AD, it should be AH instead of AD. Anno Harmonias instead of Anno Domini. -
Or perhaps the Oathgate works by switching the things on the plateau with the things on the other plateau (using a similar principle to the way time bubbles choose if something is inside or outside). I doubt it would transport an entire army if some of the people were on a different plateau.

I'm pretty sure you can't Soulcast gemstones.

Shaggai replied to Shardbearer's topic in General Brandon Discussion
That's the Alethi script, not the Alethi language. If you want the Alethi language, you'll have to wait until the glyphs get fully translated. -

They're in the New Reputation Levels thread now. Ookla the Inverted posted right after it, even.
